[PATCH 2/2] jbd2: Prevent panic for destroyed devices

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some devices(nbd) can becomes unoperatable via kill_bdev
so its pagecache will be invalidated and all buffers becomes unmapped.
In that situation we will trigger BUGON on submit_bh.

#Testcase
mkdir  -p a/mnt
cd a
truncate -s 1G img
mkfs.ext4 -F img
qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 img
mount /dev/nbd0 /mnt
cp -r /bin/ /mnt&
# Disconnect nbd while cp is active
qemu-nbd -d /dev/nbd0
